Oracle Platform Software Engineer

Round 1: Online coding assessment (multiple choice and programming problems) → Round 2: Technical interview (coding, system design, platform concepts) → Round 3: HR interview (fitment, motivation, compensation discussion)

Oracle promotes a collaborative environment where engineers are encouraged to experiment, share knowledge, and take ownership of their projects. The company offers clear career ladders, regular performance feedback, and a healthy work‑life balance with flexible working options where applicable.

Oracle’s interview process usually starts with an online coding test lasting 60‑90 minutes, focusing on arrays, strings, and basic algorithms. Successful candidates move to a technical interview where they solve live coding problems, discuss system design basics, and answer platform‑related questions. The final HR round assesses cultural fit, communication skills, and salary expectations. Preparation should include practicing coding problems under time pressure and reviewing core platform concepts.

Graduation in B.Tech/B.E. (Computer Science, Information Technology, Electronics), MCA, or equivalent degree; minimum 60% aggregate or CGPA 6.0/10; final year students of 2024‑2026 batches are eligible; no active backlogs at the time of application; proficiency in English (reading, writing, speaking).
